With condensed calendars in New York and London but expansive lineups in Milan and Paris, Fall 2025 was a uniquely paced season – but for that reason the creativity and craft that was on display across these four cities offered all the more insight on the pulse of fashion’s present inflection point. Several related tensions defined the season: fitting into traditional femininity versus standing out, heritage versus progress, refinement versus rawness. This last balance was particularly embodied in the fur revival that was unmistakably trending across many collections, from Simone Rocha to Khaite and beyond.
Diesel crafted a fashion spectacle in every sense of the word, brilliant from the small details of its innovative material fabrications to the larger-than-life impact of its expansive and hypergraphic runway set.
Sarah Burton’s debut for Givenchy was the most anticipated show of the season, and the designer more than delivered. The collection put her own artful twist on a heritage of architectural tailoring and gorgeous draping, projecting a vision of soft power.
At Chloé, Chemena Kamali continued to evolve her vision of bohemian femininity, embracing a more intuitive sense of style to push the house’s heroine beyond a prescribed aesthetic category and towards a new sense of freedom.
But it’s Prada that – once again – earned its way into the coveted top spot. Putting their own progressive and idiosyncratic take on that theme of self-defined femininity that characterized much of the season, Raf Simons and Miuccia Prada pushed their penchant for skewed proportions and textural juxtapositions to provocatively stylish new depths.
